spoilerSo am I; and I've even heard some of the same shit. Difference is, I have enough discernment to know that any "feminist" telling a male CSA survivor that they should never have spoken out, or that it "wasn't rape because you liked it' (that's the variant I've personally heard, multiple times) is probably a radfem or a trad wearing kayfabe; who shouldn't be looked to as an example of the broader movement.

Further, I refuse to let it poison my views of the movement as a whole because there is still a mass disparity between what WE have to go through and what THEY have to go through, and what THEY go through is infinitely worse. Discernment and empathy go a lot farther than "but what about MY feelings".

oh sorry I am so misogynistic, I will shut up

Honestly, at this point, I do think you're a misogynist on some level, because this isn't the first time this discussion's been had with you, and I'm not the first one to do it. Frankly, considering you've done nothing but intensify your debate perversion about this since getting banned from Lemmygrad over it, I find it deeply fucking ironic that you talk about 'critiquing oneself'. Pot, kettle, hello!

I don't think you can even parse how much it disgusts me that you'd quote Mao to justify the patriarchal policing of wounds to your own ego.

Edit to add:

there are laws, but all of them favour women over men.

Wildly false on its face, and you know it. You’re universalizing something that you know damn well has historically not been so and currently is not so. Where can this come from but unexamined misogyny?
